Why isn't this, or anything else in Software Update? It' just been coming up blank, when I've seen websites reporting these updates as if they should be in there.

Weird, Software Update still hasn't picked it up for me.

I'll download it anyway.

Actually a couple of my machines didn't pick it up, but the machine in our house that uses our Express the most did.. So I guess Software update works on your profile in some way...

My G5 has still not picked up the Bluetooth update which all my other machines have....

Strange....

I only use my Express, so there's nothing else for the update thing to worry about.

I need to find a place for the old printer that I brought back home from my mom & dad, too. But that's entirely a different story.. lol
